Let's See those Mini Displays

[GraphicSilence]

I love seeing all the mini displays. Giving me lots of ideas for my collection. Right now, they are just randomly placed all over.

Glass front. Accessed by removing back panel. I use Quake hold to keep the minis in place for moving around/hanging the cases.

Follow-up question: How did you get Ms. Pac-Man in that 3x4 case?

I need to build some Risers, thought I’d be able to get a lot more on there then i did.

Might look into building my own. Buying them gets pricey!

I totally recommend building your own. I have started doing that and really like how they turn out. Probably can't provide pictures, but I use a foam board material.

There was a thread awhile back that people showed off displays. A few users showed off their displays using these displays cases from the Container Store:

I tried them and highly recommend them too! I bought a few of them myself and they're very effective for minis. For bigger collections I'd suggest custom risers though.

Foam board! I do remember people saying they use that to make them. I just need to stop being lazy and look into it. Thanks for the recommendations!!!

Foam board works great. We used it to make risers for our Dorbz display. Highly recommended.

Carefully.

Had to bend her legs a bit to get her to fit. The shelves have round indents for displaying a golf/baseball inside. I flip them updated down for the flat surface for a mini to stand on, that indent also helps with her bow.

I don't have a picture but those shot-glass display cases from Micheal's are just about perfect for minis!

Haha, understood. I did the same thing with my case (flipping the shelves upside down), but it was so frustrating because practically every Mini series I want to display contains at least one extra tall character that won’t fit regardless (Loki, Captain Hook, McGonagall, etc.).

I settled on classic Star Wars. The indent helps Chewbacca just barely fit in there, but you have to 86 the figure stand.

So many awesome displays!! Great job guys and gals! Totally jealous of how magnificent they all look! WOW!!

[pampam]

My minis are a mess and scattered all over at this point, but I do have a pretty nice PSH display going.

Nice display cases! Really like the way that looks. It’s a nice fit just like the baseball bat display for pops.

This is exactly how I did my LOTR and Harry Potter display . I found these at the Container Store. It one of my favorite ways to display minis.

Looks like all of S1 LOTR wont fit in a case

I like to use these Ikea picture frame ledges (shown are two per row). Its been the best option - minus a little dust. I buy too many to use the smaller , enclosed case (or shotglass display) - i simply do not have the room for them. These are also good as some figures are taller/wider than others, so spacing them isn't always uniform. There are 8 more shelves on the adjacent wall, my mini collection is getting out of hand

You have a wonderful display.

[Annie_May13]

I can't build anything without directions buy my fiance is going to try and build me a Disney inspired one for my tsum tsum collection already so maybe I can convince him to build me one for my disney PSH and Mystery MIni set. I really like the Michael's Displays and my friend from work bought me one for my collection but I think it would be so cool to have themed ones. Fingers crossed he can do it

Our complete collection of HP S1 and S2

What a magical display! Looks great and congratulations on being complete!

[Joshz89]

Hey guys, sorry I’m new and got a stupid question. Can someone tell me how to post a pic? I can’t figure it out . Wanted to post my mini set.

You have to upload it to another website or use Instagram. No way to attach a photo from your computer.

[Joshz89]

Thank you! Let see if this works. FINALLY complete my ST set

The link works, but try using the picture icon instead. It's on the top row of a full response box.

[highlanderfil]

So it looks like the Container Store $9.99 special and the IKEA ledge shelves are the go-to solutions here. Good to know we've not missed anything

Now if I could only find something that has a cover and could house multiple 1/43 car models...

Our complete collection of HP S1 and S2

Congratulations. This is such a wonderful display.

[highlanderfil]

Thanks We tried to pair them up as best we could!

[Greymom]

Just starting to display the minis. I need more display cases....ack!

[neilmc2001]

Did you stick your minis down to stop them falling over ? If so what did you use? Thanks

[wenhol8710]

I'm yet to get everything else out on display, but in the meantime, while I still need to paint the boxes, I've combined my original obsession, sorry, passion, with my new minis one (& to a smaller extent, pops) all together on the same shelf for HP (second only to Star Wars in fandom for me).

I think I'll paint the boxes a deep forest green or just straight black so they blend in a bit more...

Holy crap, that looks amazing! So jealous of those Lego sets.

A few of my Rick and Morty minis are stuck down but not the ones in the photo. Most are fine, except Adam Maitland. He'll drop at the sign of a whisper

[JenPop]

I finally got a few more display cases and reorganized my collection! It looks great on my bookshelf!

[Popfanatics]

Some day I want to get into some wood working to design the perfect mini display case. I use 2 of the shot glass cases from Michael's. One is the right height but a bit narrow for some minis, the other has the width but not the height. Sigh... 1st world problems.





They come black, I painted them semi-gloss white to match my shelving and let the colors pop more.

I got these in white from Target.com. They look great in my daughter’s pink room.

Thanks, that's good to know! Taking apart, masking and spray painting these was a bit of a chore. I will check Target out when I need more.

[Marvelfanatic86]

I use the same spice rack risers as the OP (from Walmart, $15 each but they’re expandable) and also whatever else I have (Pop! and Wobbler boxes, cigar boxes, etc.).

Don’t mind my dusty shelves!!!!

Awesome display one of my favorites ! Great job !

What's the best bang for your buck display container? And where do you get yours?

Definitely looking great Jen!! Excellent reorganization

[Pryde72]

I would have to post a picture of a box, full of minis I simply don’t have the room to display them all.

there are some great mini displays in here. Gives me some ideas for improving ours a bit.
For the moment, its just cases and cases of...
